RE: Reverse on a Spitfire

Unless it's a late single rail unit...then it's pull up on the knob, over far 
right and forward.

On a correctly working Spit tranny:

Push the gearshift lever DOWN, then LEFT, then FORWARD. 


                  R       1        3
                  |       |        |
                  |       |        |
                  ------------------
                          |        |
                          |        |
                          2        4

On the Herald-based Triumphs reverse is exactly the opposite of where it
is on the big TRs, which is OUT, RIGHT, BACK.

Hope that helps!
